Read the passage and mark A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the blanks

Last year, there were millions of international tourist arrivals across the globe. Whether they were

students on their ( 46 )______ years looking for overseas adventure, stressed-out workers hoping to get

away for a weekend, or retirees ( 47 )______ to relax in an exotic location- clearly none of them thought

they could find the same experience at home. The question is whether foreign travel brings more

advantages or disadvantages.

of the world. If they are ( 48 )_____ - minded, they can learn about new cultures and hopefully gain a more

accurate understanding about their way of life. In addition, there is the economic benefit of tourism to

countries which have few other resources. It can provide an income to many people within the industry.

Having said that, some people simply go to a foreign resort ( 49 )______ by high walls and therefore learn

little about their holiday ( 50 )______. Another issue is that hordes of tourists often spoil the “unspoilt”

places they visit. The most recent example of this is Antarctica, where last year cruise ships took

thousands of visitors to view the disappearing icebergs and wildlife. Vegetation, nesting penguins and

resting walrus are vulnerable when humans intrude.
